Mrs - "oh my god"
Me - "I know, it's a sandstorm"
Mrs - 'wierd look on her face'
Me - "Yeah, fuck that for a joke"

It looks exactly like they do in the movies.. awesome

Matty · 30th April 2005, 11:13 PM

As scary as it looks it wouldn't be fatal. It'd sting like buggery, but we're used to that in Wellington, when a huge gust of wind hits just as you walk past a building site and get nailed by numerous building substances. Like rivets.

technit · 1st May 2005, 05:24 PM

hahaha dodgey f#*k living in welly then

DrTec · 1st May 2005, 05:57 PM

The Ultimate Test:

APEX'i vs.
HKS vs.
TRUST vs.
GREDDY vs.
K&N vs.
SIMOTA vs.
RicePRO.

Full Throttle at that!

Who will come out on top, with best filtration, and best performance increase?

(Well at least youd find out quickly what filter would be doing the better job at filtering

) lol[/url]

princess4586 · 2nd May 2005, 11:32 AM

tysonzane · 2nd May 2005, 11:40 AM

I can only imagine the conditions of some cars that are left outside during that

Blitza · 2nd May 2005, 01:09 PM

Bluetech · 2nd May 2005, 02:30 PM

K&N were developing filters for the apachi attack helicopters in Iraq for this kind of thing.
